第1题:New YorkApril 14, 2006)-The famous New York institution, the Winchester Hotel, established in 1887, has just announced its intention to enter the convention market. In a press release today, the hotel’s management announced that it will demolish several adjacent buildings, which it also owns, to make way for a new convention center to be known as the WinchesterCenter. The design, already approved by the New YorkCityCouncil, involves ultra-modern facilities that will be linked to the existing hotel by an atrium.

The atrium will encourage informal meetings, while the new convention center will offer state-of-the-art audio-visual technology, exhibition halls of several sizes, and, not far away, access to a health club, restaurants, and bars.
